How do we evaluate ambiguous concepts such as wellbeing, freedom, and social justice? How do we develop policies that offer everyone the best chance to achieve what they want from life? The capability approach, a theoretical framework pioneered by the philosopher and economist Amartya Sen in the 1980s, has become an increasingly influential way to think about these issues. Wellbeing, Freedom and Social Justice: The Capability Approach Re-Examined is both an introduction to the capability approach and a thorough evaluation of the challenges and disputes that have engrossed the scholars who have developed it. Ingrid Robeyns offers her own illuminating and rigorously interdisciplinary interpretation, arguing that by appreciating the distinction between the general capability approach and more specific capability theories or applications we can create a powerful and flexible tool for use in a variety of academic disciplines and fields of policymaking. This book provides an original and comprehensive account that will appeal to scholars of the capability approach, new readers looking for an interdisciplinary introduction, and those interested in theories of justice, human rights, basic needs, and the human development approach.

Approach Capability // Was bedeutet approach capability". Was ist der capability approach"? Der "capability approach" ist der von Amartya Sen und Martha Nussbaum entwickelte Ansatz, der Gerechtigkeit als Entfaltung von Fähigkeiten und Möglichkeiten ausdrückt. Sen und Nussbaum folgen dabei mehr formaler und theoretischer Vorgaben, bspw. inklusive philosophischer Theorien der Gerechtigkeit von Aristoteles bis Rawls. Sen verfolgt inklusive einen Ansatz, der sich im konkreten Wirtschaftsleben bewähren soll. Ergebnisse des Ansatzes sind also auch messbar, wobei das alte Bruttosozialprodukt oder das neue Gross Domestic Product wenig über die tatsächlichen qualitativen Lebensverhältnisse einer Bevölkerung aussagen. Der capability approach" gewinnt seine Werte durch eine nicht auf lokale Felder beschränkte gesamtheitliche Darstellung auch ökonomischer Beziehungen translokal und global über begrenzte Formen von Gemeinschaft hinaus. Gerechtigkeit und damit die Entfaltung von Fähigkeiten kann somit nicht an einer bestimmten Gruppe von Personen fest gemacht werden. Entfaltung und damit Gerechtigkeit kann sowohl von äußeren Umständen als auch inneren eigenen oder übernommenen Denkweisen etc. behindert werden. // Was meint "Approach capability" - wie kann der praktische "approach" aussehen - das Buch zeigt auch anhand von historischen Beispielen die hohe informelle Bedeutung der Begrifflichkeiten, welche sich formeller Maßnahmen entzieht. Ohne die informelle Ebene wird der "approach" nicht nachhaltig. Welche Faktoren können den "approach" behindern. Informellen Ebenen ist wesentlich schwieriger beizukommen als den formellen, obwohl beides durchaus miteinander verstrickt ist. Das Buch versteht sich als neues alternatives Grundlagenbuch.

This is the first book dedicated exclusively to the question of the relationships between sustainability and the capability approach. It is rather astonishing that the issue of sustainability first posed by the Brundtland commission in 1987 has gained so little attention from capability scholars despite the approach’s focus on human well-being. This book starts with a seminal contribution by Sen on the "Ends and Means of Sustainability" delivered as a keynote in 2000. All contributions to the book focus on the difficulties that arise from a freedom-oriented view of sustainability: they argue for taking note of the impact of human life on nature, they question the meaning of intergenerational justice when measured in the currency of "substantive freedoms" (capabilities), they raise the issue of collective responsibility and suggest ways to model and operationalize the capability approach to sustainable development. The book presents the state of the art concerning "The capability approach and sustainability" while admitting that it is only a first contribution to a growing field that deserves our attention: Defining what is to be sustained and asking how it can be sustained. This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of Human Development and Capabilities.

The capability approach of Martha Nussbaum and Amartya Sen places human capabilities at the centre stage of discussions about justice, equality, development and the quality of life. It rejects too much emphasis on mere preference satisfaction or resource provision and highlights the importance of human agency and freedom. This approach has already significantly influenced different fields of application, such as economics and development studies. Only recently have scholars started to explore its relevance for and application to the area of technology and design, which can be crucial factors in the expansion of human capabilities. How does technology influence human capabilities? What difference could a capability approach make to policies and practices of applying ICT in development processes in the South? How can we criticize and improve the design of technology from the perspective of the capability approach? The authors of this volume explore the implications of the capability approach for technology & design and together create the first volume on this emerging topic.

Kuklys examines how Nobel Prize-winning economist Amartya Sen’s approach to welfare measurement can be put in practice for poverty and inequality measurement in affluent societies such as the UK. Sen argues that an individual’s welfare should not be measured in terms of her income, but in terms what she can actually do or be, her capabilities. In Chapters 1 and 2, Kuklys describes the capability approach from a standard welfare economic point of view and provides a comprehensive literature review of the empirical applications in this area of research. In the remaining chapters, novel econometric techniques are employed to operationalise the concepts of functionings and capability to investigate inequality and poverty in terms of capability in the UK. Kuklys finds that capability measurement is always a useful complement to traditional monetary analysis, and particularly so in the case of capability-deprived disabled individuals.

The capability approach developed by Nobel Laureate Amartya Sen has become an important new paradigm in thinking about development. However, despite its theoretical and philosophical attractiveness, it has been less easy to measure or to translate into policy. This volume addresses these issues in the context of poverty and justice. Part I offers a set of conceptual essays that debate the strength of the often misunderstood individual focus of the capability approach. Part II investigates the techniques by which we can measure and compare capabilities, and how we can integrate them into poverty comparisons and policy advice. Finally, Part III looks at how we can apply the capability approach to different regions and contexts. Written by a team of international scholars, The Capability Approach is a valuable resource for researchers and graduate students concerned with the debate over the value of the capability approach and its potential applications.
